Fiction and poetry by the Teen Writers of the Inland Empire (T.W.I.N.E.), sponsored by the Spokane County Library District

Reality by Shilo

Prompt: Write a story that starts or ends with "everything went black."

My heart pounds as I try to grasp the reality of what just happened. The blood pools at my feet. But it's not mine. Just a few seconds earlier I had been running home from school. Who knew I would come home to this? I hear a door slam but don't register what it means; I'm too wrapped up in my misery. A sharp scraping noise next, and I'm snapped back to reality. I fall to my knees, but this time, the blood is mine. Then, everything went black.

LAST MEETING/CELEBRATION

Thursday, Dec. 4 at 4 p.m. (Spokane Valley)

Virtual T.W.I.N.E.!

Unable to come to the monthly in-person meeting? Don't worry - you can still participate! Once or twice a month we'll post a writing prompt and invite you to send us your creative writing. Fiction, poetry, even original artwork or your own song lyrics are all welcome. Then we'll post it right here on the TWINE blog!

E-mail us at twine(dot)scld@gmail.com. You can either send us your work as an attachment or copy it directly into the body of the email. Please give us your first name and which SCLD library you visit the most -- we might expand TWINE to more physical locations if we know the interest is there!
